1. “Furthermore, the Transitional Government of National Unity set up an investigative committee under the chairmanship of Mr. Riek Gal Kok, the National Minister of Health. He visited Wau, and his findings will be made public once completed. From 7 to 10 July, Juba, the capital city of the Republic of South Sudan and the seat of the Transitional Government of National Unity, experienced the most difficult challenge to the Peace Agreement so far. On 7 July, at approximately 8.30 p.m., a force from the headquarters of the First Vice-President, commanded by Lieutenant Colonel David Rieu, attacked a checkpoint at Gudelle, a neighbourhood in Juba. The checkpoint was run by an integrated force from the SPLA and other organized forces.”

2. “In Raja, the capital of Lol state, on 15 June the house of the Governor was attacked and the town was overrun by unknown gunmen, before they were repelled by the Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA). Wau, the capital of Wau state, was attacked on 24 June, also by unknown gunmen. The Council released a press statement that called for calm and restraint. The Transitional Government of National Unity acted swiftly on both occasion to protect civilians and their property. Human casualties were minimized and further loss of property was avoided through the imposition of a curfew in the attacked towns. Humanitarian access was allowed unhindered by the states' Governments, and the new Governors of the two states called for calm and asked the people to work together in getting to the root cause of what happened.”

3. “The Transitional Government of National Unity remains on course to implement the Agreement despite the numerous challenges we face. It is unfortunate to note that the few achievements of the Transitional Government of National Unity have been severally impacted by the events of the past few days in South Sudan. Nevertheless, the Transitional Government remains committed to the implementation of the Agreement and considers the setbacks as a learning curve. As members are well aware, over the past few weeks some major towns in South Sudan were attacked by unknown gunmen, which resulted in displacement and loss of property and lives among many of our citizens.”

4. “Allow me to begin by congratulating you and your delegation, Sir, on your assumption of the presidency of the Security Council for the month of July. My delegation will render its full support. As this is my first engagement with the Security Council as Permanent Representative of my country, I would like to assure the Council of my cooperation and support in tackling issues that pertain to my country. At the outset, I would like to express my deep condolences with regard to the United Nations peacekeepers and personnel who lost their lives during the unfortunate event in Juba. I would like to inform the Security Council of the commitment of the Transitional Government of National Unity to fully implement the Agreement on the Resolution of Conflict in South Sudan.”
